I am excited to share that I have recently begun training in Somatic Experiencing and I will be integrating this beautiful therapy into my practice. This gentle but powerful body-based approach supports Nervous System regulation and deep healing. This modality is a wonderful addition to my practice as a CranioSacral Therapist and Psychotherapist.

While conventional therapy helps us understand our stories, somatic work helps us release what's stored in our nervous system.

Trauma doesn't just live in our memories—it lives in our bodies. That tension in your shoulders, the knot in your stomach, the shallow breathing when stressed? These are your body's language trying to communicate.

In our somatic sessions, we'll:
• Gently track bodily sensations
• Build resources for nervous system regulation
• Create safety from within

If you are curious about adding this dimension to your healing journey? Your next session can include both approaches—helping you process not just through thinking, but through feeling.

CranioSacral therapy is a gentle hands on treatment that enhances your body’s ability to release tensions and stresses that are held physically.

As a CranioSacral therapist I invite you to take some time to settle in to an exploration of your inner self and gain valuable insights into your body’s story. This gentle presence to your physical body allows you to recognise and let go of held emotions or tensions in a safe and gentle way.

This process often results in a sense of peace, or space, freeing up your energy for your next big adventure.

This therapy is particularly helpful to relieve tensions that can naturally occur in pregnancy and can pave the way for a healthy birth and postpartum period.

So if you would like more information on how CranioSacral therapy might benefit you or your family get in touch.

✨I am delighted to be offering a one day introduction to Family constellations.

✨Family constellations is a method that was developed from Zulu rituals to explore our relationship with our Ancestors.

✨It has evolved into a deeply transformative experience that allows us to access the knowing field or Universal consciousness. Helping us to gain insights around unconscious blocks from our ancestral history and our current life story.

✨This one day workshop invites you to explore and release blocks from your family history and to create personal rituals to fully engage in the flow of life.

✨I am a practicing Psychotherapist and CranioSacral therapist
I have began my training with this phenomenal approach since 2013 and recently completed an advanced training with the London school of Constellations which has deeply expanded my understanding of this wonderful method

✨The investment for the day is €70
